17610 - From Jabir ibn 'Abd Allah, he said: When the Prophet (peace be upon him) and his companions dug the trench, the Prophet (peace be upon him) and the Muslims suffered severe distress.

17611 - From al-Suddi, he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) dug the trench, and Quraysh, Kinanah, and Ghatafan gathered. Abu Sufyan hired them with the caravan of Quraysh, so they came and encamped in his vicinity. Quraysh descended to the bottom of the valley, and Ghatafan descended to the right of that, and Tulayhah al-Asadi with Banu Asad to the left of that. The Banu Qurayzah of the Jews supported them in fighting the Prophet (peace be upon him). When they descended upon the Prophet (peace be upon him), he fortified himself in Medina, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) dug the trench. While he was striking in it with his pickaxe, the pickaxe struck a hard rock, and a spark like a shooting star of fire flew from it into the sky. He struck a second time, and something similar came out. Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) saw that and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I saw that from every strike a spark like a shooting star came out and flared up toward the sky.' (6)
